English term or phrase: pass rush
If our pass rush could get to him early, maybe he’d be off his
game. Even if he was a little rusty at the start, we could use that
to our advantage.
En realidad, tampoco entiendo muy bien cómo podría traducirse "he'd be off his game". ¿Si nuestro pase rápido le llegara al comienzo, tal vez eso atentara contra su juego (o estrategia, porque en este caso, "he" es el quarterback del equipo contrario)?
Texto deportivo para todas las edades.

presión de parte de los cazamariscales
Explanation:
cazamariscales = pass rushers (including defensive linemen and blitzing defensive backs)

If our pass rush could get to him early, maybe he’d be off his
game = Si los cazamariscales pudieran (hubieran podido) ponerle/aplicarle presión temprano [en el juego], a lo mejor/quizás...

off his game = not "on top" of his game/not playing to the best of his ability
